To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, injury to persons, or damage when using the cooktop, follow basic precautions, including the following:
CAUTION

• Do not store items of interest to children in cabinets above a cooktop – Children climbing on the cooktop could be seriously injured.
• Proper Installation – Be sure your cooktop is properly installed and grounded by a qualified technician.
• Never use your cooktop for warming the room.
• Do not leave children alone – Children should not be left alone or unattended in area where cooktop is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the cooktop.
• Wear proper apparel – Loose-fitting or hanging garments should never be worn while using the cooktop.
• User servicing – Do not repair or replace any part of the cooktop unless specifically recommended in the manual. All other servicing should be refered to a qualified technician.
• Storage on cooktop – Flammable materials should not be stored near surface units.
• Do not use water on grease fires – Smother fire or flame or use dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.
• Use only dry potholders – Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth.
• DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS OR AREAS NEAR UNITS – Surface units may be hot even though they are dark in color. Areas near surface units may become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or  let clothing or other flammable materials contact surface units or areas near units until they have had sufficient time to cool. Among those areas are the cooktop and surfaces facing the cooktop.
• Use proper pan size – This cooktop is equipped with one or more surface units of different size. Select utensils having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit heating element. Proper relationship of utensil to burner will  also improve efficiency.
• Never leave surface units unattended at high heat settings – Boilover causes smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite.
• Glazed cooking utensils – Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for cooktop service without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature.
• Utensil handles should be turned inward and not extend over adjacent surface units.
• To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due to unintentional contact with the utensil, the handle of a utensil should be positioned so that it is turned inward, and does not extend over adjacent surface units.
• Do not cook on broken cooktop – If cooktop should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken cooktop and create a risk of electric shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately.
• Clean cooktop with caution – If a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be careful to avoid steam burn. Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.
• Do not place metal objects such as knives, forks, spoons and lids on the hob surface as they may overheat.

FOR UNITS WITH COIL ELEMENTS

• Make sure reflector pans or drip bowls are in place – Absence of these pans or bowls during cooking may subject wiring or components underneath to damage
• Protective liners – Do not use aluminum foil to line surface unit drip bowls, except as suggested in the manual. Improper installation of these liners may result in a risk of electric shock, or fire.
• Do not soak removable heating elements – Heating elements should never be immersed in water.

USE

The induction cooking system is based on the physical phenomenon of magnetic induction. The main characteristic of this system is the direct transfer of energy from the generator to the pot.

Advantages:
When compared to electric hobs, your induction hob is:

• Safer: lower temperature on the glass surface.
• Faster: shorter food heating times.
• More accurate: the hob immediately reacts to your commands
• More efficient: 90% of the absorbed energy is transformed into heat.
• Moreover, once the pot is removed from the hob, heat transmission is immediately interrupted, avoiding unnecessary heat losses.

COOKING CONTAINERS
Use only pots bearing the symbol
IMPORTANT
To avoid permanent damage to the hob surface, DO NOT USE:

• containers with less than perfectly flat bottoms.
• metal containers with enamelled bottoms.
• containers with a rough base, to avoid scratching the hob surface.
• never place hot pots and pans on the surface of the hob’s control panel
• do not slide pans across the cooking surface.

PRE-EXISTING CONTAINERS
Induction cooking uses magnetism to generate heat. Containers must therefore contain iron. Check if the pot material is magnetic using a magnet. Pots are not suitable if they are not magnetically detectable.
Recommended pan bottom diameters
IMPORTANT
If the pots are not correctly sized, the cooking zones will not turn on.
For details of the minimum pot diameter that needs to be used on each zone, see the illustrated part of this manual.

ENERGY SAVING
Recommendations for best results:

• Use pots and pans with a bottom diameter equal to that of the cooking zone.
• Use only pots and pans with flat bottoms.
• Where possible, keep the lid on pots during cooking
• Cook vegetables, potatoes, etc. with a minimal amount of water to reduce cooking time.
• Use a pressure cooker, as it further reduces the energy consumption and cooking time.
• Place the pot in the centre of the cooking zone outlined on the hob.

USING THE COOKTOP
Before you begin, it is important to know:
All functions of this hob are designed in order to comply with the most stringent safety regulations.
For this reason:

• Some functions will not be activated, or will be automatically deactivated, in the absence of pots on the burners or when they are poorly positioned.
  – In other cases the activated functions will be automatically deactivated after a few seconds when the specific function requires a further setting that has not been selected (e.g.: “Turn the hob on” without “Selecting the cooking zone” and the “Operating temperature”, or the “Lock Function” or the “Timer” function).

IIMPORTANT
In the case (for example) of prolonged use, the cooking zone may not immediately shut down because it is in the cooling phase; the “ ” symbol will appear on the cooking zone display to indicate the execution of this phase.
Wait for the display to turn off before approaching the cooking zone.
